Jio, Airtel may introduce separate pricing for 4G, 5G plans under TRAI's draft rules

Telecom regulator TRAI has proposed new rules to support 5G network slicing, a technology that creates separate virtual networks for different services. The draft rules would also allow telecom operators such as Jio and Airtel to introduce separate pricing for 4G, 5G and other services. However, companies must ensure that network slicing does not affect overall service quality.
